Hi everyone I'm pretty new here so excuse me if this question has been asked before.

I have an H22A4 in my car and am doing a full NA setup. The list goes something like this...
cold air intake
RC bore TB
ported single runner intake manifold
Crower stage two cams
crower valve springs with titanium retainers
head work
TypeS pistons
and aftermarket connecting rods
and to run/tune this setup I have utilized a OBD1 conversion

My question is, do you guys/gals think that this setup I could benefit with using a thermal barrier coating on my cylinder head combustion chamber/top of the pistons/and my exhaust ports?

 

I think your setup could benefit from it, but I don't know whether or not if it's worth the $. Do you know how expensive the coatings are? What do you mean by head work? I assume you mean port and polish and a three angle valve job and maybe even surfacing. Although if you are ripping the head off anyways maybe it's not a bad idea. As far as I know the coatings are more beneficial for turbos and superchargers but I'm not sure.
